Girls

Girls you are Not alone. We’d love to hear your stories and bring truth to our society’s very distorted view of beauty.

Here are some of the highlights from Dove’s Campaign for Real Beauty’s National Report:

–Seven in ten girls believe they are not good enough or do not measure up in some way, including their looks, performance in school and relationships with friends and family members.

–75% of girls with low self-esteem reported engaging in negative activities, such as disordered eating, cutting, bullying, smoking or drinking when feeling badly about themselves (Compared to 25% of girls with high self-esteem)

–57% of all girls have a mother who criticizes her own looks

-More than one-third (34%) of girls with low self-esteem believe that they are not a good daughter (Compared to 9% of girls with high self-esteem)
